If the system continues to fail to update, please contact us via Chat portal or email.

If the above 2 conditions are already met, the "Cannot Display Map" error is caused by corrupted file(s).

We recommended that you have stable and high speed Internet connection. Please use Ethernet cable instead of wireless connection. please temporary disable any security software that actively scan the download process/files.

2. The Software version on your SD card/USB driver is not the same version that is on the head unit. If you downloaded the map update, please try to redownload* the correct update using the search by SW ver.

We are sorry that your install took so long, but please keep in mind some installations may take up to 3 hours to complete. If you have waited long enough and believe your system is not progressing, please do not turn off your engine. Perform a soft reset instead.

1. Soft Reset – Find the pin hole on your head unit and use paper clip or bobby pin to press & reset.

After a soft reset, you may try to run the update one more time. Often, the soft reset will fix the issue that caused the stall earlier and will allow you to complete the process on the second run. 

If the soft reset doesn't solve the issue and your head unit is still stuck on a certain screen, please remove the SD card/USB drive from the head unit and then proceed with the hard reset next.

2. Hard Reset – Disconnecting your vehicle battery for 30 min. WARNING, you will lose your saved settings.
